Net Zero 2050

Net Zero By 2050

Our commitment to sustainability extends to every corner of our business. We strive to move the dial forward and influence society not only in fashion, but also in our responsibility to the planet.​ That's why we're taking bold steps to combat climate change by reducing our carbon emissions as we strive for Net Zero by 2050.

Meaningful Collaborations

We believe in helping each other within the industry to address systemic issues and achieve common goals. That is why ALDO Group is a member of the Fashion Pact, Cascale, as well as a proud signatory of the UN Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action.

Lower-Footprint Materials

From innovative materials like plant-based corn to recycled alternatives like
recycled polyurethane, we are always on the lookout for better manufacturing processes and materials to craft the products you love.

Responsible Leather Sourcing

As members of the Leather Working Group (LWG), we are committed to sourcing leather in a responsible and transparent manner to insure animal welfare. We work with other brands, retailers, tanners, manufacturers and experts to improve the traceability and environmental performance of the leather industry. We are proud to share that 100% of our leather products use LWG certified materials.

Improved Packaging

We continuously try to improve our packaging to ensure that we source more certified and post-consumer recycled materials. In 2008, we redesigned our shoebox to include a built-in handle to eliminate the need for a bag. In 2019, we broke up with single-use shopping bags from our stores, saving 10 million bags annually (this represents 11,000 trees!) and decreased our packaging carbon footprint by 39%. In addition, our shoeboxes are made with at least 80% recycled fibers and are certified with the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).

Energy Efficient Stores

In 2013, we calculated our carbon footprint and set ourselves a baseline for improvement. Since then, we have improved the energy efficiency of our stores and corporate offices by converting lighting to 100% LED technology for most of our stores, implementing Energy Management Systems (EMS) that control lighting and ventilation and sourcing renewable energy.​
